Dembski on being an I.D. pioneer.
ID Pioneer William Dembski on His Rocky and Rewarding Journey
On a new episode of ID the Future, intelligent design pioneer William Dembski tells the story of his rocky journey into and out of higher education, the reasons for his sabbatical from the ID movement, his recent success as an entrepreneur, and his return to ID work. Along the way Dembski bats down a mistaken rumor about his sabbatical. The occasion for his conversation with host Casey Luskin is the recent anthology Dembski and Luskin contributed to and helped edit, The Comprehensive Guide to Science and Faith: Exploring the Ultimate Questions about Life and the Cosmos.

David Berlinski is skeptical about the skeptics?
Medved, Berlinski Take on Steven Pinker and Whig History
On a new episode of ID the Future, Human Nature author and polymath David Berlinski and radio host Michael Medved discuss everything from human depravity, the burning of Notre Dame, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine to the Big Bang and a quixotic century-old pact to ban war. Download the podcast or listen to it here.
Berlinski argues that the case for the death of God and the case for
the impending demise of human depravity have been greatly exaggerated.
Taking issue with Steven Pinker, Berlinski insists that there is little
if any evidence that human evil is being steadily rolled back by the
spread of secular values. Further, the idea that science has disproven
God flies in the face of trends running in the opposite direction,
perhaps most dramatically in the triumph of the Big Bang theory over an
eternal universe model. Berlinski, who himself is not religious, insists
that optimistic Whig history is bankrupt and that anyone imagining that
human depravity and the God hypothesis are things of the past are
themselves living in the past.
